#protocol foundations

[chaos-ducks]

Ya’ll ever watch a fandom from a distance and be like: “danm that looks fun I should join” but then you never put in the effort to do so

[toweringclam]

Writing my Magnus Archives fanfic and I was having trouble starting this statement. It was gonna be in the classic "I'm a good person, I just sometimes eat babies" format, but I realized that's a very British attitude. This is the Usher Foundation. We're Americans

So I changed the format to "Yeah, I eat babies, and here's why I'm entirely justified in doing so."

Podcast suggestions

Hey! In the meantime, I'm gonna do some short and sweet podcast suggestions!

Podcast #1: The Magnus Archives (Rusty Quill)

200 episodes, 5 seasons in length and finished

eldritch fear-based horror story

rating: 9.5/10 (0.5 point deduction for ending :( )

Podcast #2: The Magnus Protocol (Rusty Quill)

38 episodes, 2 seasons in length and unfinished

The Magnus Protocol is the prequel/sequel/”sidequel” to the Magnus Archives podcast.

rating: 9.5/10 (0.5 deduction for killing off my fav characters)

Podcast #3: The Holmwood Foundation

Only Pilot out so far

A secretive organisation. Two antagonistic work colleagues. Dracula’s severed head...

rating: 9/10 (great diversity, hard to understand without having previous knowledge on the storyline)

Podcast #4: Malevolent

52 episodes out so far, not sure on how many seasons and unfinished

Have only listened to ep 1 so far but very interesting pod with great soundscaping

rating: 8/10 (confusing and long episodes)

Podcast #5: Re:Dracula

99 episodes (pretty sure), 1 season and finished

Have only listened to ep 1-50; retelling of dracula through Johnathan Harkers diary and other things such as letters, telegrams etc.

Rating: 8.5/10 (bad soundscaping but good voice actors and very easy to follow)

Thanks for reading and I hope you listen to one of these!

Any old Archives fans remember that theory from late S3 that Gertrude had put some kind of anti-Corruption spell on her, and that was why her skin was still in good enough condition for Nikola to wear even after being buried for so long?

Anyway. I think she had an Oscar Jarrett tattoo.

[the-usher-foudation]

Hello everyone!! Sorry for the long wait! (When was the last time I updated?)

IT'S BEEN 6 MONTHS! oh how time flies when your busy as hell....

So what the situation. Well.. WE ARE STARTING TO FILM ON SATURDAY! (yippee!)

There have been some casting changes, I had to pull a markiplier and cast myself as the one of the main characters as my previous actor had to leave. But we are all set in motion!

Get ready folks for ACTION, ADVENTURE, BEHIND THE SCENES FOOTAGE!!! and so much more!

[intriheart]

Imagine how fucked up it would be if the writers of TMagP got rid of the OIAR’s workers to replace them next season with Tim, Sasha, Michael, etc

What if the void in the cast is to be filled by previous archival assistants

I’m scared [which means that the horror podcast is doing its job]

[ashironie]

i hc that the Usher Foundation (that was in Washington, DC, probably for the sole fact that’s the capital) is now somewhere in Ohio.

[magicicephoenix]

Man.. your dca who au is so cool, it's clear your hyperfixation is so much more extreme than mine ever was, I don't think I could've made such an au as in depth as yours! You're so cool!

aaa thank you!! i am having so much fun making it and everyone's reactions are really helping with motivation <3

[myquietsafehaven]

True facts SCP-2086 and the Growler share the same ecological niche and I love that for them.

[3008pod]

hello hell cite citizens!

this blog is for the SCP podcast I'm going to start work on as soon as possible! once i have enough of it edited up i want to release a little bit of the first episode as a pilot! the podcast is going to be set inside of SCP-3008 the endless Ikea,

I'm also doing this as a very broke person, meaning i don't really have a lot of resources, all of the podcasts preparation and editing is going to be fully on me, hopefully within the next week i can start editing together the first few clips!

if your interested in jumping on a new podcast right as its being made please feel free to follow this page!

but if you just want to read podcast review i run another blog you can follow here!

The Fishkin Files

The Fishkin Files is the name of my current project, set in the Magnus 'verse. The world isn't exactly the same as Archives, but waaaay closer than Protocol. The main difference is that many of the revelations of the latter seasons are common knowledge in the Usher Foundation. Most critically, the fact that under certain conditions, tape recorders can be used to verify a statement's veracity.

Despite allegedly being a "sister organization" to the Magnus Institute, nobody actually believes this is an equal relationship. The Usher Foundation has to cover many times the area and population of Magnus with barely any more budget. Therefore they commonly cut corners, such as relying on "outside contractors." They also are more interested in combating supernatural threats than simply cataloguing them, which is where the outside contractors often come in. Operations are run from the Home Office in Chicago and delegated to regional offices from there, with a special Liaison Office in DC.

This all sounds very interesting but virtually none of it is relevant to the protagonist, Deborah Fishkin (aka Debbie Fish), a 40 year old trans "file clerk" at the Carolina office, located in Asheville, NC. I say file clerk but she's basically a one-woman show, having to run archives, take statements, do research, interact with contractors, and basically anything else her boss tells her to do because the vast majority of the staff walked out in 2020, roughly a month before she first started working here.

Her boss, Frank Bowman, is a meek and unassuming man who wound up in this position by default when most of the staff walked out. He's way out of his depth here as the Home Office is bearing down on him, he's way understaffed, he hasn't been able to get any new hires since Debbie, and he's the only one working here who is knows that the people who walked out haven't been found. So he makes unreasonable demands of his few remaining employees, especially Debbie (not that she really listens).

Debbie is an absolutely terrible employee, but she does have an inquisitive streak. When she encounters a case with an unexpected personal connection, she's going to start pulling the threads to find out what exactly is going on here, and possibly change the occult world's entire understanding of the Fears.

Okay, y'all, baseball season is starting up and I'm trying to decide who the next blorbo I work on between innings is, SO. Soliciting opinions on where on my list to start, but let's narrow it down first...

For reference, these are the characters on the list for each of those podcasts; the ones that have links are already done. (Sam is finished and has been for a while, I just need to fix his mouth and take pictures and he'll be posted.)

If you want to say which of the characters on the list from that podcast you think I should do, go for it, although that'll be a separate poll if the winner has more than one character on it. And keep in mind that eventually I'm going to do all of them. I just need to know where to start.

SCP Articles that read like Magnus Archive episodes masterpost

I will update this with SCP articles as I come across them, along with some thoughts of mine. I will also link audio readings of them where possible :3

SCP-7115 • American Meat • The Volgun YouTube Reading

This is a tale of the American meat packing industry told from two different perspectives —feels like two MAG episodes in one. “We are all just meat.”

SCP-7034 • Aerials • The Volgun YouTube reading

Massive Lonely vibes, but I’m curios y’all’s take on this one. “SCP-7034 is highly congested with traffic, with all lanes occupied by vehicles of various make and model. The length of this congestion, including its end point, is unknown.”

[psychedelic-charm]

Hello! It's good to see someone getting into Zampanio. Don't forget to take breaks! And if you see me or my Puppeteer on your wandering, why not stay a while and say hi?

Good night, Puppet!
